I just prepared a testing -> stable move and noticed a few broken deps 
in epel5 that are not in this list.

Took a closer look and found that for example the revisor version that 
is missing for revisor-* above is actually in the repo:
http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/epel/5/i386/revisor-2.0.5.1-4.el5.noarch.rpm

But there is also a newer one which thus breaks the deps:
http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/epel/5/i386/revisor-2.0.5.2-1.el5.noarch.rpm

Anyone any idea why the script doesn't detect this? Or am I missing 
something?
